Mounting the wall plate
Drywall Installation
Important! For safety reasons, this mount must be secured to a wood stud capable of supporting the combined weight of the mount and display. Do not mount to drywall alone.
1.Use a high quality stud fi nder to locate a stud where you wish to install your mount. Mark both edges of the stud to help identify the exact center.
NOTE: You must use the center of the stud to avoid cracking or splitting the wood during installation.
2.Place the wall plate against the wall and level it using the integrated bubble level.
3.While another person holds the wall plate in position, mark two locations (top and bottom) for securing the mount to the wall. (see Fig.1).
4.Set the wall plate aside and drill a 6 mm (1/4”) pilot hole at each marked location.
5.Place the wall plate back against the wall and attach it using the lag bolts (A) and lag bolt washers (B) (see Fig. 2). Do not over-tighten these bolts and do not release the wall plate until all bolts are in place. Ensure that the wall plate remains level after all bolts are secured.

|
|
in place, mark three |
|
|
locations on the |

|
|
mount. Mark two |
|
|
locations at the top of |
|
|
the wall plate and one |

Insert a Concrete |
|
|
Anchor (C) into each |
|
|
hole so that it is fl ush |
|
|
with the concrete |
|
|
surface (see Fig. 4). A |
